[Founder Name]
Founder, Tirion
[Founder Name] built Tirion from 15 years of experience navigating the commercialization challenge from every angle—research, industry, and tech transfer.
Academic Background
[Founder Name] holds a PhD in Chemistry with over 10,000 citations to his research. He has prosecuted 10+ patents and contributed to multiple university spin-out companies, providing early exposure to the challenges of translating laboratory discoveries into commercial opportunities.
Industry & Commercialization Experience
Over the past 15 years, [Founder Name] has worked at university spin-out companies across sensors, batteries, and critical minerals—from sub-10 person startups to companies with over 300 employees. His roles have spanned the full commercialization lifecycle: prosecuting patents, negotiating licensing deals, conducting customer discovery, supporting fundraising, and launching products to market.
This experience gave him direct insight into how technology transfer offices evaluate opportunities, how companies assess in-licensing prospects, and what makes the difference between innovations that find product-market fit and those that don't.
Why Tirion
Tirion addresses the challenges [Founder Name] encountered repeatedly: the need for deep technical analysis across unfamiliar domains, the difficulty of identifying non-obvious commercial opportunities, and the time-consuming work of finding and reaching the right prospects.
The platform delivers what he wished had existed throughout his career—comprehensive analysis that doesn't require becoming an expert in every field, systematic opportunity discovery, and execution support that takes ideas all the way to targeted outreach.
